Trial Outcomes & Findings for PREMIX vs PREMED Intranasal Lidocaine and Midazolam (NCT NCT03054844)

NCT ID: NCT03054844

Last Updated: 2019-09-11

Results Overview

The Observational Scale of Behavioral Distress-Revised (OSBD-R) is an observational measure of pain and distress shown to have strong validity in children. The scale is an 8-factor, weighted observational scale used to measure distress associated with medical procedures, which has been validated in children and adults aged 1 to 20 years. The total Observational Scale of Behavioral Distress-Revised score is the sum of the scale scores for each phase, with each phase assigned a score from 0 to 23.5 units on a scale (0=no distress, 23.5=maximum distress), based on the frequency and types of behaviors observed during a predetermined number of 15-second intervals during each phase. There were four phases so the range of scores for the total OSBD-R was 0 to 94 units on a scale, with a higher score indicated a greater degree of distress.

Measure
PREMED
Patients will receive 0.25 mL of IN 4% lidocaine (10 mg) in each naris (total of 0.5 mL/20 mg for both nares) preceding adminstration of IN midazolam. Lidocaine: Lidocaine will be administered before administration of midazolam. Midazolam: Midazolam will be administered either after lidocaine, or as a mixture with lidocaine.
PREMIX
Patients will receive midazolam mixed with 0.5 mL of 4% lidocaine (20 mg). Lidocaine and midazolam (PREMIX): Lidocaine will be administered as a mixture with midazolam.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 10 minutes

The Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (CHEOPS) utilizes six observational factors (cry, facial, verbal, torso, touch, and legs) to evaluate pain in young children and can be used to monitor the effectiveness of interventions for reducing the pain and discomfort of an intervention. This scale rates each behavior numerically, with a score of 4-6 units on a scale representing no pain, and a maximum score of 13 units on a scale representing (most pain perceived).

Timeframe: 10 minutes

The Faces, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scale is comprised of five criteria (face, legs, activity, cry, consolability), with a possible score of 0 to 2 units on a scale for each criteria and a possible total score of 0 to 10 units on a scale (0 meaning no pain, 10 meaning most pain).
